Child Support Collection

Our goal is to ensure that legally responsible persons, to the best of their ability, contribute toward the support of their children until they are 21 years of age, thus improving the self-sufficiency of families through increased financial and medical support.

You may now apply for Child Support Services online. The Child Support Online Enrollment Wizard allows individuals to enroll in child support services online – eliminating the need to visit a child support office or mail in a paper enrollment form. This new feature reduces paperwork and processing time for enrollees. The link to the Online Enrollment Wizard is https://childsupport.ny.gov/enroll.
